185: 4th Anniversary Special - Cruising Through Neverland

Our podcast is 4 years old! To celebrate, we bring you aboard the Disney Wonder to discuss our Halloween on the High Seas podcast cruise with a dozen Skywalkers! During the cruise, we sat down to discuss the high points with Randy Crane ( Stories of the Magic ), Chickaphant and Chickaphant’s parents, Michelle and Michael, Lance and Debbie Dobersek, Dave Skale, Peter & Norma Heitman and a special guest that may or may not have had some behind-the-scenes info to dish. We asked YOU to share your thoughts and memories of Skywalking Through Neverland over the past 4 years, so your voices and well-wishes are sprinkled throughout the episode. The overall consensus? Family. We wouldn’t trade it for anything. Thank you. WHERE WE WILL BE (IN REAL LIFE) 9/27/17: Skywalking to Mickey's Halloween Party at Disneyland!
